The History of AustinHits.com
Before AustinHits became a venue directory and part of the Austin Live Music History Preservation Project, the domain had a different life.
AustinHits.com originally belonged to a small local radio station that promoted Austin artists, local shows, and the city’s growing music culture.
It wasn’t a giant broadcaster — it was one of those grassroots, homegrown Austin projects that popped up to support the scene in its own way.
Like many pieces of Austin’s music ecosystem, the station eventually went silent. The domain drifted offline, its purpose fading into the background as the city changed around it.
Years later, the name resurfaced — and instead of letting it disappear into the digital void, we revived it with a new mission.
Today, AustinHits.com honors its roots by continuing to support Austin music, but in a new form:as a living archive of venues, stories, and the history that shaped the sound of the city.
Just as Austin’s legendary venues deserve to be remembered, so do the small projects that helped amplify them. AustinHits.com is one of those stories — a piece of Austin’s musical past brought back to life to help preserve the rest.
